An oral marine protein supplement (MPS) is designed to promote hair growth in women with temporary thinning hair (Viviscal Extra Strength; Lifes2good, Inc., Chicago, IL). This double-blind, placebo-controlled study assessed the ability of MPS to promote terminal hair growth in adult women with self-perceived thinning hair associated with poor diet, stress, hormonal influences, or abnormal menstrual cycles. Adult women with thinning hair were randomized to receive MPS ( N  = 30) or placebo ( N  = 30) twice daily for 90 days. Digital images were obtained from a 4 cm 2  area scalp target area. Each subject's hair was washed and shed hairs were collected and counted. After 90 days, these measures were repeated and subjects completed Quality of Life and Self-Assessment Questionnaires. MPS-treated subjects achieved a significant increase in the number of terminal hairs within the target area ( P  < 0.0001) which was significantly greater than placebo ( P  < 0.0001). MPS use also resulted in significantly less hair shedding ( P  = 0.002) and higher total Self-Assessment ( P  = 0.006) and Quality of Life Questionnaires scores ( P  = 0.035). There were no reported adverse events. MPS promotes hair growth and decreases hair loss in women suffering from temporary thinning hair. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:  NCT02297360 .
